And that's exactly what the dems will be doing in November... tipping close races by paying "libertarians" to siphon off votes from GOPers.

...and that Democrats need to figure out how to fire up theirs — minorities and young people.

Which happen to be the very ones hardest hit by their insane policies.

Oh what an evil web we weave...

Well, lies, goofy ads & free money motivate the low information minorities and young people.

“Democrats need to figure out how to fire up theirs — minorities and young people.”

I’m sure that behind closed doors Democrats admit they’ve conceded the “young people” vote over the last few years (especially whites); they are simply buying time until the former (minorities) can make up the losses. This is happening much more quickly than people realize (or the government will ever admit); my children’s class pictures show a dramatic change even within a five year range, and soon those “others” will be voting-age.

...David Alexrod said Wednesday that the lesson to take away from the special election in Florida’s 13th District is that problems with Obamacare motivated the Republican base...

Not surprisingly Axelrod is wrong again. There are not "problems with" obamacare - obamacare itself and in its entirety is the problem. "Problems with obamacare" implies it can be fixed. obamacare cannot be fixed, it is fundamentally flawed. It can only be destroyed.

...like what is happening in South Carolina. How many so-called Tea Party candidates do they have there to take on the pathetic Lindseed GrayedHam?

The "Republican base" is always motivated!

According to the Associated Press, the district "is 37 percent Republican, 35 percent Democrat and 24 percent independent. More than one in four registered voters is older than 65, a population that could make up more than half of those who cast ballots."

The winning margin is more than the Republican minus Democrat (claimed) margin. (Which I don't believe, in a district that Obama won twice.) This is something else.

That race was pretty close at the end and I believe the demodummies will find more missing election boxes with 100% votes going to the demodummie candidate.

Why not? It sure worked in Virginia.

Minimum wage increase and immigration are the ways the Dems are using to fire up their base.

These Libertarian candidates are nothing more than Democrat Money Bundler plants to syphon off votes from the Republicans. Watch for them to pop up in Senate races where Democrat incumbents are threatened or that the race might be close. Before anyone votes for them, they should take a close look at where they get their money. A good example was the State of Virginia Governors race where the Libertarian candidate sucked off enough Republican votes to elect the Democrat. That Virginia libertarian got all his money from a rich Texas Obama Bundler. Soros and his front Organizations will also be behind funding these phoneys.
